I Want to Be Where the

Normal People Are : The


perfect Christmas gift for
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend fans
By
Rachel Bloom
HODDER &
STOUGHTON
'One of the funniest books of the year' - Guardian

A collection of hilarious personal essays, poems and even


amusement park maps on the subjects of insecurity, fame, anxiety,
and much more from the charming and wickedly funny creator of
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

"It's nice to know someone as talented as Rachel is also pretty


weird. If you're like me and love Rachel Bloom, this hilarious,
personal book will make you love her even more." - Mindy Kaling

"Rachel is one of the funniest, bravest people of our generation and


this book blew me away." - Amy Schumer

Rachel Bloom has felt abnormal and out of place her whole life. In
this exploration of what she thinks makes her 'different', she's come
to realise that a lot of people also feel this way; even people who she
otherwise thought were 'normal'.

In a collection of laugh-out-loud funny essays, all told in the unique


voice (sometimes singing voice) that made her a star, Rachel writes
about everything from her love of Disney, OCD and depression,
weirdness, and female friendships to the story of how she didn't
poop in the toilet until she was four years old. It's a hilarious, smart,
and infinitely relatable collection (except for the pooping thing).

'I adore Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and this book was exactly what I
needed it to be. Would highly recommend.' 5*
'Rachel's voice is loud and clear from the first lines of the book. I've
been missing it since Crazy Ex-Girlfriend . . . this time she's talking
right to me, in my head, and it is like being part of this newfound
Friendtopia.' 5*

'Heartfelt. Honest. Genuine. And funny as hell . . . Rachel writes


about the things that could have broken her, but didn't, in a very
funny and raw way, and she doesn't hold back.' 5*

'Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is a hilarious and honest show which does not


hold back when confronting the truth of sex, love, mental illness and
life. This same comedic and chaotic energy is channelled in Bloom's
wonderful book which I would highly recommend, whether you are
a previous fan of hers or not.' 5*
